I believe in eternal security. However, a co-worker recently presented me with the following scriptures and asked me to explain eternal security with these in mind. Hebrews 6:4-12 and 10:26; 2 Peter 2:20-22 and 3:14-17 What is your viewpoint?
I recently heard a preacher (who believed in a post-trib rapture) say that since 1 Corinthians 15:52 says we are raptured at the "last trump, for the trumpet shall sound" and that the last trump doesn't sound until Revelation 11:15 and that there cannot be 2 last trumpets that the rapture must occur at the end of the great tribulation. I have tried to study this out for myself but I know I'm missing something and I would appreciate any insight you can give me on this.
In Hebrews 9:26 Paul (or whoever may be writing) said that Christ had appeared "once "IN THE END OF THE WORLD" to atone for sins. How can it be the "end of the world" when it happened almost 2,000 years ago (considering that this world is only 6,000 plus years old)?
Is the rapture of the church a doctrine of demons? I am quite confused on the pre-tribulation, post-tribulation and no rapture.
